We Need More Leathernecks in Viet Nam Says General Walt
Washington AP General Lewis Walt, top Marine in South Vietnam, urged Johnson for more Marines to secure areas cleared of Communists. He declined to specify numbers beyond the existing 40,000, saying a larger force was needed to hold and protect liberated sectors and win local confidence. He cited Operation Double Eagle results and noted intelligence and infiltration challenges along the border with Laos.
